Civilization VI: John Curtin Leads Australia

Civ is shit.

I thought we all knew that /his/ is /gsg/ territory.

#liquoria2ftw

I pirated Civ 6 when it first came out, and the retarded and insane AI made the game feel like a joke.

I guess they patched it but I'm not gonna pay full retail just to see if it's fun.

What did they mean by this?

Australian civilization but no mention of abos.

Must be white supremacy at work.

So here's the list so far: http://civ6.gamepedia.com/Civilizations .
They don't have Persians, Mongols, Turks, Inca, any of the ancient Semitic-speaking civilization like Akkad, Assyria, Judea, Phoenicia or Carthage, or anyone from the South-Eastern Asia or Polynesia, and yet they decided to add the famous Australian Civilization. Eurocentrism is real.

Anyone else expecting Australia's unique unit to be the famed 'Abo Spearchucker'?

>>2400014
Of course it's real, you retard, the game is made by Europeans. Maybe if you want your shitty Asian country in it, you should make your own game.
I do think that fucking Australia was a mistake, though.

>>2400014
Where is Jadviga? Is she not out yet?

>>2400014
I wish they wouldn't make it so obvious that they're really trying to squeeze as many female leaders as possible in there whether or not they're actually important.

>Catherine de Medici
>Gorgo

Get real. At least pick female leaders that became leader for reasons besides marrying the king.

So I wanted to prove you wrong so I checked it out and you're actually right. Moreover, >>2400466 is right too, Canada is the next.

>>2399894
Well they do have Poland as a civilization so Australia ain't that far of a stretch.

>>2399894
>Australia is a civ
>Incas are not

This is why civ 6 is fucking garbage. That and lack of mod support.

So what's their special ability?

This is part of a trend to add more modern civilizations mixed with the old.

Portugal was a giant in the colonial era, but today is a 'literally who?' civilization compared to the Brazilians. So it made sense to have both Brazill and Portugal as civilizations in Civ 5, Portugal is basically nobody today. Just like having both America and Britain as civilizations. Australia has the potential, with all its land and resources, to outpace Britain as a civilization in the future.

The rising stars VS the crumbling old powers falling into obscurity.

>>2399894
Australia is a civilization? They might as well add Estonia, Slovakia and Uruguay next.

Guess that Finland will be included in the Meme Nations DLC then.

were all in civ 5 tbf, no reason to assume they won't be added in dlc
>Akkad
fair enough
>Assyria
was also in 5
>Judea
would be cool but they probably won't add it for the same reason they never have. too controversial due to associations with israel
>Phoenicia
who would you have as the leader?
>Carthage
been in every game since 2. will obviously be added sooner or later
>anyone from the South-Eastern Asia or Polynesia
5 had Siam, Indonesia and Polynesia
>they decided to add the famous Australian Civilization
due to popular demand. same reason they added norway, scythia and sumeria. people were asking for them on the forums. mark my words, canada will be next

wow this is some boring shit

>>2401057
Never. It's not a civilization, not a nation, just a state.

Chile and Argentina probably have tons of people who consider themselves the descendants of the Incas, and they're lower-class first-world nations.

>>2401213
>>2401057

Belgium is God's Mistake.

>>2401219
They're not first world by any metric

>>2401141
But they aren't their own really developed culture, they're just British. Many Australians are probably closer, culturally, to certain groups in Britain than some other groups in Britain are from each other.

>>2400014
>implying that non-europeans are capable of being civilized

>>2400060
They based their leaders this time around on personality

>>2401243
Have you ever been to Australia and Britain?
I mean, the US is only a civ because of its power, as well as separating earlier, and so, having a tab more culture.

>>2401246
>lower first-world

So this is the newest buzzword that 3rd world countries use to describe themselves?

>>2401252

It is literally a series meant for people that are too autistic for rts games but not autistic enough for paradox's shit.

From the Wikipedia page of Argentina. They're certainly better than third-world, if we're using the modern definitions of the three worlds.
Maybe upper second-world.

>>2401261
So you know Australian culture? And you're familiar with British culture, yes? At least from movies, yes?
If the people of your country were suddenly transported to some county in England, and everyone acted as if you had been there all along, can you honestly say people travelling through Britain would say that they felt like they were in a foreign country, in Australian Shire, as opposed to the lands around it? Can you?

To be fair with Australia, it planned (sort of) for Civ 5. The devs wanted a colonial civ, and it was toss up between Brazil, Canada and Australia.

Also something interesting I found, the Shoshone were not going to be Brave New World at first. Firaxis looked into adding the Pueblo, but when doing research into their language and history, large members of that community refused to let them add their people into a video game.

>>2402380
Humans have always put idealized attractiveness on a pedestal. Those old Greek and Roman statues aren't all ugly plain people. Neither are all those Renaissance paintings. Cinema has always been dominated by attractive actors. We don't go to fiction for a boring repeat of our mundane reality, we go to it for an idealized escape from reality. This is why the push for more "realistic" women in videogames is missing the point.

Ausfag here. I can guarantee most Australians have little to no idea who this is. Really doesn't deserve to be a civ.

But there's male characters that are plain to ugly. You have to be a complete and total spastic to have a fit over some ugly broad being ugly.

>>2401261
Britain is second most popular place for Australians to emigrate (it was first but has since been overtaken by the USA) and Australia is the first most popular for Brits.

There's a reason for that, you can go to either country and live your life basically exactly the same way and get along with the locals without any cultural barriers.

I mean, you'd find it difficult to have a good barbecue in England but you know what I mean. There's practically no difference in culture, you can basically see this in action by looking at the tourists form both countries, both equally terrible.

>>2400014

The civs this time aren't even particularly fun to play.

>>2401503
To be fair, the characters in VI all look weird because it's a different style, it's not just the women.
